Fair dinkum DH, no-one cares if you were the minister for the pigs!!!!!

Re: Show some flaming ticker

Someone is bragging about participating in the invasion of Iraq, which was a crime. One million dead Iraqis, probably many more. No one knows because it’s not reported. 22 US veterans top themselves every day. Disgusting and offensive to compare a genocidal crime against humanity to a game of footb...

Shows how much you know about police fitness standards. When I left the academy in 1982, you had to be able to do 30 push ups and 30 sit-ups in a minute. 12 minutes for the 3km time trial.

Is Hickey's latest contract to blame for his form slump?

No one can deny that Tom Hickey had an excellent 2016 season. At last, he showed he could realise his enormous potential and justify the draft pick we spent on him. It looked as though we had the ruckman we needed, having traded Ben McEvoy out. What's happened? One theory is that his contract is par...

Good post, LL. I concur with most of it. He threw Elshaug under the bus in his presser after the north game when he was grilled by a journo about Paddy's performance. He told us that Tony Elshaug had," assured us he was going to be a great player who would give us 10-12 years of good footy.&quo...

Re: McEvoy and Stanley.

So how's Goddard doing in his fourth year? I know he's had injury problems, but on the available evidence Stanley and Geelong are way ahead in that deal at the moment. I hope that changes over the next few years. Dunstan is out of favour with the coaches it seems, playing at Sandringham, although I'...

Re: McEvoy and Stanley.

Good points, Spinner. I wasn't lamenting the decisions to trade. Risk is part of that. While we haven't done all that well out of those trades, they're hardly a disaster . My beef is that clubs like Hawthorn and Geelong, without the bonanza of draft picks we've had in the past six years, seem to be ...

Re: Paddy

Indeed, portosaint. I was hopeful after 2016 that he was progressing, if somewhat slowly. 2017 was a disaster. The concussions,coupled with the extended break in the second half of the year seems to have drained him of all confidence. Some of the management of him from the club has been puzzling and...

Spot on Moods. Lynch in particular. He was recommended by Loewey who had a huge opinion of him as a junior. Same with Nathan Buckley who coached him in U/18 squads. I saw him a few times in the U/18s and I was impressed. What I saw once he got to the saints left me speechless. At first, I thought he...

Re: Paddy

After watching the first 2 games my opinion of Paddy has changed. I don't know if it's the result of changing the way he plays to avoid the 'concussion issue' but he doesn't appear to me to be 'hitting the packs' like he did previously. It's almost like he's playing a 'cautious' style of game. In t...

A superb summary. Right on the money. Unfortunately a lot of it is too close to the mark to be funny. The next five weeks are critical. Adelaide, Geelong at hillbilly stadium, GWS, dorks in Launceston and freo over there. If we win even one of those i'll be impressed. Before the season started I was...

Re: Paddy and the burden of symbolism

It’s not his fault but he should never had been selected top 20 let alone first pick given his medical condition and the risk involved. Negligent. Negligence implies you did not take sufficient care. Trout took plenty of care and did it anyway. That is wilful failure. And instead of being sacked he...

Negligent.
Nailed it! A few recruiters said this at the time as well.
